Periyava Akashavani

On the very auspicious Sri MahaPeriyava Aradhanai day which also happens to be “Anusham”, we are here in Mokshapuri, Kanchipuram in front of Sri MahaPeriyava Manimandapam, Orikkai, as we humbly offer “Periyava Akashavani” to the lotus feet of Sri MahaPeriyava and our Acharyas of Kanchi Kamakoti Peetham and to Sri Sivan SAR.

In today’s fast materialistic world, we could neither give up materialistic life nor ignore spiritual aspirations. Even those with deeper spiritual aspirations need aid of some kind to keep their minds in Satsang.

Sri Adi Sankarar mentions Satsang, a simple yet most powerful method, as a way to Salvation…

Satsang need not be only our Sangam (association) with Sath-People. In this fast world, it is a infact a far fetched dream. Having said that, Satsang can also be an association with Sath-Book or websites or any such things.

For us ‘Sath’ is Periyava. It is therefore our endeavor to create something that can keep our minds, talks, thoughts and views associated with Periyava. In these lines, we are blessed to launch “Periyava Akashavani” – An Online Radio App – an apt way of keeping Periyava-SmaranA!

“Periyava Akashavani” will be broadcasting experiences with Sri MahaPeriyava by HIS devotees, Upanyasam by Sri MahaPeriyava, Pravachanam, Songs, Bhajans, Special LIVE programs and many more… related to Sri MahaPeriyava and our Guru Parampara.

“If we talk about Periyava, our ‘vAk’ gets purified… If we work for Periyava, our body gets purified… If we think about Periyava, our mind gets purified…”, Sri Kannan Mama (later became Swamigal), said once.

Let us all indulge in the amirta-SAgara called Periyava, using this App!

Sri Adi Acharyal says in Sivananda Lahari , “Why search for pushpam or such things to offer to Bhagwan when your heart is there to offer?”

Why wait? Let’s offer our heart to Periyava!

We sincerely hope that downloading this App and effectively using it will aid the same.

When “Periyava Akashavani” sprouted, out of the blue appeared Sri Swamynathan who came for Sri Sivan SAR Darshan. Nobody knew that Sri Swamynathan and Smt Harini Swamynathan were chosen by Sri MahaPeriyava and Sri Sivan SAR to take up this divine task of “Periyava Akashavani”.

Another person in this core team is Sri Aniruddha Deshpande. Aniruddha being a marati person, doesn’t even know who Periyava is. Yet he volunteered to take up this task of developing a mobile App. What drove him towards this task? Only Periyava knows… Later, Aniruddha surprised us saying that his dad was born and brought up in “Satara”, Maharastra. This team of people have been working meticulously day and night and here we are with “Periyava Akashavani”.

Sri Balaji of Vignesh studios contributed to this initiative by designing the logo for the initial version of “Periyava Akashavani”. NOTE: The latest version of Periyava Akashavani has been updated with fresh look and new content and a new “Lotus” logo.

We are also very happy that Sri Suresh of Sankara TV will be sharing his content with Periyava Puranam and Periyava Akashavani.

Veda Dharma Sastra Paripalana Sabha was established by Sri MahaPeriyava in 1942 to propagate Veda Dharma throughout the country. Even today, under the spiritual guidance of HH Sri Bala Periyava, VDSP Sabha has been doing Veda Sammelanam and Visesha Upanyasam throughout the country. We are blessed to join hands with them through this initiative.

We are also very happy that Sri Vignesh Studios has given rights to telecast their Live coverage of Sri MahaPeriyava Adistanam and Sri MahaPeriyava Manimandapam, Orikkai through “Periyava Akashavani”.
